Urban Lambda Grids for Advanced Biomedical Collaboration Jonathan C. Silverstein iGrid 2005 September 27, 2005
Team Members & Collaborative Partners • ABC Laboratory • Computation Institute of The University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory • University of Chicago Hospitals • Departments of Surgery, Anesthesia, Medicine, and Radiology • General Devices • International Emergency Medicine Disaster Specialists • Rhode Island Hospital Medical Simulation Center • Northwestern University, University of Illinois at Chicago
Funding • National Library of Medicine / National Institutes of Health • University of Chicago and University of Chicago Hospitals • Searle Family Funds of The Chicago Community Trust • Northwestern University, University of Illinois at Chicago • Access Grid Team funded by DOE, NSF, and FusionGrid
(Administrative - Cost)Crisis in U.S. Medicine • Medical Malpractice Insurance Reform Needed • 80 - Hour Workweek Mandated • Increasing Complexity of Care and Technology • Nursing Shortage • Decreasing Reimbursement More Difficult to Manage
Hope for U.S. Medicine • Effective Utilization of Information and Computation for Quality (Safety) and Efficiency (Collaboration) • Medical Malpractice - Define and Assure Quality • 80 - Hour Workweek - Improve Efficiency • Increasing Complexity - Improve Safety • Nursing Shortage - Improve Collaboration • Reimbursement More Difficult - Reward Quality
I-Wire Chicago Biomedical Consortium This conceptual diagram symbolizes our goals of tightly collaborative scientific advancement and education across our institutions, which will be achieved by weaving together our substantial existing enterprises, enhancing them in strategic focus areas, and leveraging them with other international resources.
